The BLS data shows that layoffs in August of last year were 97694. There were 66,214 laid off in September and 97,390 in October. It appears that the jump to well above 200,000 was BECAUSE Obama was elected!

Many CEOs who were not secure enough to announce definite lay-offs if Obama was re-elected faked doom & gloom in the run-up to the election. Most who announced definite lay-offs have backed-off without media scrutiny from the so-called liberal press since the election.
